It starts with 3 cards and 3's are wild. The next hand has 4 cards and 4's are wild, and so on. You'll need luck and skill throughout the game because even in the last hand a worthy opponent can come from behind and win.
Product Description Five Crowns is a fast paced ingenious rummy-like card game. Its double deck contains five suits (the stars are new), but it has no aces or twos. This unique deck gives you many more options for arranging your hand into sets and sequences. The challenge is to see them make the right combinations, be the first to go out, then watch the others scramble as they get one last chance to cut their losses. Five Crowns, with its beautiful cards, is easy to learn. It starts with three cards and 3's are wild. The next hand has four cards and 4's are wild, and so on. You'll need luck and skill throughout the game because even in the last hand a worthy opponent can come from behind and win. Remember, "the game isn't over 'til the Kings go wild!" Five Crowns is for up to 2 to 7 players.
Customer Reviews:
great card gameOctober 1, 2008 MC(Benicia, Ca USA) We've been playing this game for years. It's a great equalizer for all ages to play together, We take it camping, to our cabin, to the beach. Fun for young and old.
Five CrownsSeptember 26, 2008 R. B. Collette(Utah, USA) Our family loves this game. Even my 6 & 7-year-old nephews like to play. I bought several sets to give as gifts so that we can play at more homes!
Five CrownsSeptember 13, 2008 Marti Zohner We had played this card game before with someone else and thought it was fun. It is better with four people than just two.
first time buyerSeptember 9, 2008 pb(Dover, DE) Our friends introduced this game to us when we visited them out of state. My husband helped me track down the game on Amazon.com and it arrived afew days later. The cost and s/h was less then they paid from a store. The whole process was simple,quick and economical.
Never get tired of this card game.August 29, 2008 R. Krautbauer(Minnesota) This card game is always changing, full of surprise, each time around you never know who will win. One minute things are going your way and the next hand can totally shift the outcome of the game. To play the whole 10 hands (which completes the game), it takes about 30 - 40 minutes time tops. The rules are very simple and easy to learn. It is really all based on luck so it is hard to 'pick' on someone during game play. No gray areas - you win...or you lose so it arguing is pretty much eliminated. Skills involved are matching and adding your points up at the end. Of course if you can manage to be the one that goes out each hand, then you won't have to add! When only 2 players play it really seems to change the feel of the game a little (still very good) than when 3 or more players are involved. Great game, good find!
